SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It prevents implementation design drift by checking YAML artifacts for missing structure, incorrect linkages, and intent-compromising content before anything gets locked or built.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Cross-validate intent structure: Reads features, architecture, tech, scenarios, and plan YAML files and checks them for internal consistency against intent constraints.
  • Detect compartmentalization breaks: Flags audience collisions (e.g., product/stakeholder content appearing in architect-only artifacts) and other structural issues that make downstream decisions unreliable.
  • Guarantee scenario-to-plan traceability: Ensures scenario IDs are properly referenced, gated, uniquely mapped, and counted consistently across the execution plan.
  • Produce a decision-ready validation result: Returns a structured validation_result containing per-check outcomes and classified issues without modifying any input artifact.

Quick Start

Ask the agent to run validate-implementation-design with the full paths to features.yaml, architecture.yaml, tech.yaml, scenarios.yaml, and plan.yaml to get a validation_result describing any violations.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I validate YAML design artifacts for architecture consistency?

To validate YAML design artifacts for architecture consistency, you ingest five specified YAML files to check internal structure and intent constraints. This process returns a structured validation result with per-check PASS or FAIL outcomes without modifying any input artifacts.

How does scenario gating work for execution plan traceability?

Scenario gating works for execution plan traceability by ensuring scenario IDs are properly referenced, uniquely mapped, and counted consistently across the plan. This mechanism flags missing linkages and intent-compromising content to prevent implementation design drift before anything gets built.

How do I detect compartmentalization breaks in intent-driven development?

You detect compartmentalization breaks in intent-driven development by cross-validating YAML artifacts to flag audience collisions. This identifies when product or stakeholder content improperly appears in architect-only artifacts, making downstream decisions unreliable.

Can I use read-only validation for enterprise-grade YAML workflows?

Yes, you can use read-only validation for enterprise-grade YAML workflows by ingesting five specified YAML paths without modifying any artifact. This suits design-time workflows that assemble features, architecture, technology, scenarios, and execution plans for deterministic, auditable coverage.

What is the best way to prevent implementation design drift in deterministic workflows?

The best way to prevent implementation design drift in deterministic workflows is cross-validating intent structure across YAML artifacts. This approach checks features, architecture, tech, scenarios, and plan files for missing structure, incorrect linkages, and intent-compromising content before locking or building.
